Enriching the Lives of Children in Huaráz

To achieve this, we use a multi-faceted approach, combining tutoring, emotional well-being classes, daily nutritious meals, and a family environment focused on educational success.

The mission of Seeds of Hope is to support children living in extreme poverty in Huaráz, Perú and to provide vocational training for those without economic means, enabling them to break the cycle of poverty.

We provide a supportive environment in which the children obtain help and encouragement with their homework. ​They are also given emotional support from our volunteers, taught the importance of personal hygiene, and provided with a nutritious meal at the end of each session.

​Seeds helps to provide the children with school uniforms, study materials, and school matriculation fees as required. In addition, we also help pay for medical assistance as the need arises.

The Children

​The children we help come from the poorest families in Huaráz, Perú. Ranging in age from six to eighteen years old, each one deserves an education and an opportunity to improve their economic circumstances.

We recognize that these children need to overcome economic disadvantages and many other barriers to succeed in their education, so Seeds of Hope tries to ensure the children have everything they need to participate in their education through emotional and material support. The children are taught to take responsibility for their own education and to value the opportunity they have to learn.​

Volunteer with Us!

We always need volunteers to help at Seeds of Hope, and welcome anyone who displays a positive outlook and enthusiasm. There are many opportunities to partner with us, whether it is working directly with the children as a school tutor, or behind the scenes as the international coordinator.

We are always interested in your suggestions for future project ideas. Whether it's expanding our nutrition program, working to implement further sex education classes, or ideas for fun exercise regimes, we want to hear from you! We currently need teachers, social workers, psychologists, project coordinators, language professionals, marketing, and fundraising professionals. All are truly rewarding experiences!
